I assure you, if it is the most recent one, reading it will be rather like having a stone in your shoe, as well. A stone that just keeps having sex over and over and over again.
I just finished that one, in like 2 days flat. According to the blurb in the back, the next one comes out sometime this month :D
Normally after I read one of those books its like "okay, now how many months do I have to wait for the next one?" I'm lucky I'm not as addicted to the HP books.
It's hard to admit it because I'm afraid everyone will hate me for being stupid but...I like the Anita Blake books, even the later ones. The pron works for me. My only complaint is the proportions: there's about enough story for a short story, and since I actually like the stories, I want more story and less pron.
I'm not a very critical reader. I react to books emotionally, not intellectually.
I don't think you're stupid. I enjoy reading books that appeal to me emotionally.
I both like and dislike Anita Blake books, which is why I used that metaphor. If there's a new one in the house, I have to read it. But while I'm reading it, I tend to be having an internal dialogue of "OK, so you're tough and have a gun! We know that. GET ON WITH THE STORY!"
I've now read my first (and presumably last) Anita Blake book, Guilty Pleasures. I emphatically don't think people are stupid for liking them, and at the same time, I completely despised this one. I didn't like the character, the writing, the set-up, the plot, or the pacing. I finished it only out of some kind of sick fascination, waiting to see if there was anything I would like.

I'm reading Cerulean Sins.
The last few have been like that. I read them as fast as possible to get it over with. (And then go put the shoes in the wash.)
